Dr. S Jaishankar Reviews

Dr. Jaishankar's expertise saved my 82-year-old mother when her abdominal CT revealed a subtle bowel obstruction others missed. His calm explanation to our anxious family made a frightening situation manageable, and his follow-up review confirmed successful conservative treatment.

As a new parent, I was terrified when our 3-year-old needed a head MRI after a fall. Dr. Jaishankar not only performed the most gentle pediatric imaging I've ever seen but knelt to eye level with my son, making airplane sounds during the scan. The 'all clear' diagnosis came with genuine relief in his voice.

Rushed to Manipal with acute stroke symptoms, Dr. Jaishankar's team performed my CT angiography in under 10 minutes. His rapid interpretation directly guided the neuro team's intervention. Two months later, I'm walking and talking normally - a miracle he helped make possible.

My routine screening mammogram turned into something more when Dr. Jaishankar spotted microcalcifications. Instead of causing panic, his detailed visual aids showed exactly what concerned him and why a biopsy was prudent. The early-stage cancer he found is now treated thanks to his meticulous eye.

After my complex spinal fusion, Dr. Jaishankar's postoperative MRI analysis was so detailed he identified a tiny misplaced screw the surgeons hadn't noticed. His precise coordinates guided the revision surgery, preventing what could have been permanent nerve damage.

Dr. Jaishankar reviewed my abdominal ultrasound with such attention that he noticed incidental adrenal findings unrelated to my original complaint. His persistence in investigating this saved me from a potential endocrine crisis down the road - preventive medicine at its finest.

My teenage daughter's sports injury seemed minor until Dr. Jaishankar's musculoskeletal ultrasound revealed a complete tendon tear. His ability to explain the imaging to a nervous teenager while simultaneously reassuring me as a parent showed extraordinary dual-compassion competence.

During my follow-up PET scan for lymphoma, Dr. Jaishankar didn't just read the images - he remembered my name, my treatment history, and personally walked me through the comparison with previous scans. His emotional investment in my remission journey meant as much as his clinical expertise.

The interventional radiology procedure Dr. Jaishankar performed to drain my liver abscess was miraculously precise. Using ultrasound guidance, he avoided critical structures and completed what felt like major surgery through a tiny needle puncture. I was home the same day.

When my father's dementia made his MRI impossible due to movement, Dr. Jaishankar personally adapted the protocol, using shorter sequences and constant reassurance. His patience turned what could have been a failed scan into diagnostic success.

As an emergency physician myself, I recognize extraordinary radiology when I see it. Dr. Jaishankar's midnight CT interpretation for my trauma patient not only identified the splenic injury but predicted the bleeding rate, directly guiding our life-saving decision to operate immediately.

My barium swallow study with Dr. Jaishankar became an educational experience as he explained each physiological phase in real-time, spotting my subtle swallowing dysfunction that twelve previous doctors had missed. His diagnostic approach solved a five-year medical mystery.

Dr. Jaishankar's ultrasound-guided nerve block for my chronic pain was performed with such anatomical precision that I experienced immediate relief without the numbness that previous attempts had caused. His technique blended art with science.

When the power failed during my MRI, Dr. Jaishankar didn't just reschedule - he personally called the engineering team, supervised the generator switch-over, and ensured the sequence could be recovered without losing progress. His dedication to completing studies efficiently respects patient time profoundly.
